Question:
I was taking Synthroid (although all my tests were normal) and Prozac for a few months and all my BPD symptoms seemed to be OK.  I stopped taking the Synthroid (thought it might make me lose calcium).  Now I seem to be having problems.  The only other factor that may have had an effect on my behavior at that time was a corporate type course in assertiveness and emotional control (it used the adult-parent-child transactional analysis approach) was fresh in my mind.  Was it possible that the Synthroid was helping?

Thank you.

Dr. Heller's Answer:
It could have been both.  Low thyroid can trigger panic and BPD dysphoria.  It’s very hard to discern which was which in your case.

Prozac stops the unprovoked mood swings, the chronic anger, the emptiness, boredom, emotional pain and rejection sensitivity.  It won’t bring you out once you crash into dysphoria (anxiety, rage, depression and despair).  That’s why I’m so aggressive with dysphoria treatment.
